Senator Ron Johnson (Republican, Wisconsin) has downplayed the importance of Ebola vaccines, suggesting that the virus typically resolves itself without vaccination. His remarks come amidst an ongoing Ebola outbreak, which has prompted public health officials to implement travel screening measures for visitors attending the FIFA World Cup in the United States, Canada, and Mexico this summer. Johnson criticized federal health agencies for allegedly preparing for mass vaccination campaigns against diseases like Ebola and Hantavirus, despite the serious nature of Ebola, which has a case fatality rate of 25% to 90%. He noted concerns about the potential for FIFA tourists to introduce Ebola into the U.S. However, he dismissed the necessity of vaccines, contradicting the scientific consensus that supports the efficacy of the FDA-approved Ebola vaccine, Ervebo, which proved 100% effective during the 2014-2016 outbreak. Johnson also reiterated his criticism of COVID-19 treatment protocols, alleging that effective treatments were suppressed to favor profitable vaccines.
